Yesterday I worked from home. I didn’t feel like toast or oatmeal. Seriously, I couldn’t taste most things and I wanted something flavorful!
I had a smidgen of green curry left, so I mixed it with my mother’s fluffy rice cooked with matsutake. (The rice itself as a little bit of bonito dashi, sake/mirin, and cut matsutake mushrooms.) It was amazing. Through the green curry, you still tasted the earthiness of the rice, and the green curry was just warm, flavorful, comforting and spicy. On top of the matsutake mushrooms in the rice, the curry had bamboo shoots, scallions, and chicken.
It was a surprisingly delicious way to start my day. (I just nuked it all) I definitely see this as a must-have future coupling for himeji mushroom (for when mastutske is unavailable) rice or takenoko (bamboo shoots) rice and green curry!
